Huh? Alabama is so fucking screwed up they refuse to "kill" a frozen embryo because it's made in god's image. Still, they will not hesitate to execute a felon with the death penalty even though he is living and breathing already in god's image. Can someone explain this to me slowly? I'm old.

I suppose reading the article before commenting may help. The rise in antisemitism came BEFORE Israel did anything after Hamas' attack. But if you meant the Hamas attack was an attempted genocide I sincerely apologize but you are wrong, it was just a cowardly attack as all terrorist attacks are.

What about antisemitism before 1947? If the present rise in antisemitism is rooted in Israeli governmental policy, then before there was an Israeli government, by that logic there should be no cause for antisemitism. Yet, we all know too well how untrue that statement is.

I think you missed the point. If there was always antisemitism WITHOUT Israel, then blaming Israel for it now is wrong.

philo OP ,
@philo@discuss.online avatar

One last try before I write you off. Antisemitism exists regardless of the existence of Israel. there have been many rises in antisemitism throughout history ALL BEFORE 1947 so Israel's governmental policy can't be blamed. They all had differing causes though. If the cause can be random, how can you blame a government when it is obvious the cause is something much deeper.

line 1 and line 3 are fine. Line 2 is where you and most likely tons of others make light of the problem. Bye.

Von den Juden und ihren Lügen {On The Jews And Their Lies) is a little 65K word book that will show you how trite that statement is. BTW, if you didn't know. that little tome was written by the father of the protestant reformation Martin Luther and it was used as a major means of justification for the holocaust. So cultural, no, that doesn't cut it. Nice try though but it falls way short of the mark.

I’m not sure if I should take these seriously. I don’t think observing that Israeli policy has implications for how people view and behave towards Jews suggests that antisemitism was created several years after the Holocaust happened.

You missed the point Andrew. I'm saying antisemitism existed prior to 1947. Therefore its existence (and also its rise) can't be squarely placed on Israel

Would the inverse be true? Does the existence of antisemitism in prechristian times suggest that the blood libel conspiracies couldn’t have any influence on antisemitism in medieval Europe?

Show me an example of any actual acts of pre-Christian antisemitism.

My problem was with the "Ethnically-cleansed" crap. The construction in the Egyptian buffer zone (or whatever you prefer to call it) was known back then.

The article asks for neither. You should read it.

‘Just Like We Drew It Up’: What’s behind Joe Biden’s Super Bowl post? [12 Feb 2024 | Sarah Shamim | Al Jazeera] ( www.aljazeera.com )

Yet, it was no meme page or troll account posting that image: It was posted on Biden’s own X page early on Monday. Coming against the backdrop of Israel’s brutal war on Gaza that has killed more than 28,000 people and that the US has backed, the image prompted particular criticism of Biden by some social media users....

You didn't look up anything. This is a bunch of propaganda nonsense. Qatar funds Al-Jazeera as a "state" media that is both anti-US and anti-semitic. It favors the Muslim Brotherhood and every other FTO you care to mention.

I know it isn't everybody but 2 of my ex-coworkers opted out of our employee health plan figuring they would get off cheaper paying the penalty (this was like 6 years ago) and if necessary, starting a GoFundMe. One of them ended up going bankrupt.

ok....since my stroke in 2020 I've been diagnosed with clinical depression, who the hell am I scamming? Anyway, I've found that if I drink 32 ounces of water before bed every night, I have a reason to get out of bed every day....no seriously, if you're depressed, see a doctor.

    If they were the government of Gaza, they would be called the government of Gaza and operate in Gaza not in other countries. They are nothing but a bunch of little-minded idiots masquerading as government officials.
